In view of the high levels of stress among medical students, a local stress reduction and well-being programme has been developed for medical students in UPM to cope with challenges in medical school. The programme is known as 'Brief Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (b-MBCT),' and was promoted among the students as the 'Mindful-Gym' programme. The b-MBCT/Mindful-Gym is a four-session, twohour per week, group-based training programme, adapted from and based on Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction Programme (MBSR; 13-15), and Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT; 16-19).
